Description
The grapes for this wine come exclusively from the eponymous Mazzano vineyard, which is hallowed ground in Amarone terms. Masi describes the wine as austere and majestic - qualities forged by the relatively high altitude of the vineyard and stylistically reinforced through time-honoured methods in the winery. Expect a muscular wine brimming with earth, bitter coffee and dark fruit wrapped in firm tannins. It will show impressively over the next decade and beyond.

Tasting Notes
The belle of the ball, the 2004 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Mazzano is a breathtaking effort that is drinking beautifully right now. The wine is richly textured and intricate with tightly embroidered notes of dried cherry, barbecue sauce, cured meat, juniper berry, plum cake, leather and grilled herb. It shows the power of Amarone with the elegance of a wine made from fresh berries (not air-dried fruit). But make no mistake, that extra appassimento intensity and texture is on full display. Drink 2015-2030. Score - 95. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, Oct. 30, 2013)
